With all the (ex?) PSO'ers out there in AT land, I know we have a large GC base here!
Has anyone picked up the new Metroid Prime Echoes yet? If I wasn't knee deep in Covanent blood right now I would have. I was pleasently surprised at how cool the first game (Metroid Prime) was, and this one looks and sounds even cooler. The light AND dark suits... the spookier environments... So, if you bought it, or wanna buy it, or even like to dress up as Samus and run around your backyard, let's here it! Now... if I could just get past that damn rock monster from the Metroid Prime, then I could feel good about myself again. That !@#$ing thing just beats the snot out of me everytime!  --------------------  |

It was on display at Best Buy. They had Metroid Prime: Hunters demo running on it. It's not as big as you think it is. Think of the old GBA model but slightly bigger (maybe smaller, I'm not sure exactly. Bigger most likely). There was a metal piece that was attached to the system so I couldn't really see how the bottom looks like. There was a diagram near it saying you can put a GBA cart on the bottom and the DS cart (discs?) at the top. Its pretty comfortable but using the L & R triggers is really awkward (probably get used to that overtime). You don't HAVE to use the pen rather you can use your finger. The touch screen is pretty functional and it wasn't as sensitive as I thought it would be. I mean, going through the menus with the touchscreen is pretty impressive in itself. I didn't spend a whole lot of time on it. But whatever time I spent on it, it was enjoyable. To give you an idea: Think about playing metroid with on a laptop with that touchpad. Oh and the sound is crystal clear. --------------------  |
